F2D at Rouge Park, Detroit, May 17, 2009
« on: May 18, 2009, 06:28:59 AM »
Despite the shutoff rule, we had 6 entries, which was close to the usual 8.

Ron Colombo sat out to judge, and I spent the day flyin' carrier & speed, so the shutoff didn't change much. All six of the rigs were the "linepull" typo, which is to say, a couple of fishlines to the leadouts, detracting somewhat from control force, but not enough to matter. "ccordin' to Ron & Marky, they paid off in two cutaways.  He reported some nuisence activations when the lines had a bit of slack.  But everybody was able get into the air.

1st Place, F2D medal winner Ivan MacKenzie, Ontario.
2nd Place, Ed Brzys, Livonia,
3rd Place, Dave Lovgren, Ontario,
4th Place, Lou Scavone, Sterling Heights,
5th Place, Pat MacKenzie & Brad LaPointe.

Sorry, no pitchers. I was occupied in the other circle.

Ronnie got a large turnout of TT judges out to practice for The Big One, Sept 4-7. Be there. Aloha.
